The other book I own is called 'And Finally - The Story of ITN', which was released like the previous book in 2005, it's written by Richard Lindley and it's quite in-depth in it's length, but having read the whole book it's very formative and gives quite an inside look into ITN's history such as the creation and axing of News At Ten, why News At One could have been News At 12. There's loads more but my mind's a bit fuzzy as it's been a while since I read it, but it's a good read.
Yep, I'd definitely recommend that book - great read. I'd also recommend 'Morning Glory' which is a good one on breakfast tv and 'Granada Television the first generation' focusing on the early days of Granada - pretty good.
Horribly sorry for bumping an old thread with my very first post, but is this book worth buying, or are there any others that people would recommend about ITV (or indeed BBC) history. I have an interest on the more technical side of things, but I will consider anything really.
